We’ve reached a point in time where the market is chock full of excellent smartphones to pick in any type of cost range. None of these excellent smartphones is ideal though. Not even gadgets that expense you a thousand or in some cases two thousand dollars can be thought about perfect. Similarly, the OnePlus 6 is a excellent gadget as well as an outstanding value for money however it isn’t perfect. For instance, the built-in speaker set up. It’s a single downward facing speaker that’s so simple to block which ruins the gaming experience if you don’t have headphones plugged in. Downward dealing with speakers seem to be the pattern these days as everybody complies with Apple, however even apple now offers stereo speakers on its iPhones.

On the OnePlus 6, you only get one single speaker, like the OnePlus 5T before it, as well as the OnePlus 5 before it… you see where this is going. thankfully Android has a dynamic neighborhood of third-party designers that have our backs. The pricing of OnePlus devices, in addition to the close to stock Android experience, has made OnePlus flagships a favorite. Hence, there was a method to allow stereo speakers on the OnePlus 5T, as well as there was a method to do so on the OnePlus 5 too. now there’s a method to allow stereo speakers on OnePlus 6 as well.

Stereo speakers mod for OnePlus 6

This new mod for the OnePlus 6 has been put together by XDA senior Member acervenky. Unlike the OnePlus 5T mod which was just a mod of the mod for the OnePlus 5, this took a bit much more work. It does essentially the exact same thing as any type of stereo speaker mod does. It turns the earpiece into a secondary speaker which isn’t as loud as the original speaker. The earpiece was never developed to be utilized as a speaker so that’s expected.  There are methods to boost the noise output from the earpiece however they can permanently damage the earpiece. For this reason, we will not be talking about those. Instead, we will just show you exactly how to set up acervenky‘s mod.

This mod is a Magisk module which implies your OnePlus 6 should be rooted with Magisk. This mod will only work if your OnePlus 6 is running on the stock Oxygen OS firmware offered by OnePlus. customized ROMs are not yet supported.

Warning

The default volume levels that this mod sets for the earpiece are risk-free as well as ought to not damage it. Still, neither us nor the designer can assurance that. This is a risky step as well as you’re the one accountable if you do choose to take it.
